Abstract:
Objective: To acquire human thymosin α1(Tα 1) pep tides by gene engeering techniques.Methods: Tα1 gene was acquired b y molecular biological techniques and cloned into vector pGEMEX1-Tα1.An approp riate Escherichia coli (E.coli) strain was transformed by the recombinant pG EMEX1-Tα1 and its transcription and expression in E.coli we tested.Results: pUC18-Tα1,the cloning recombinant of human Tα1,was const ructed and confirmed by sequencing,and pGEMEX1-Tα1,the prokarocyte expression recombinant of human Tα1,was successfully constructed.Then it was confirmed tha t pGEMEX1-Tα1 could be transcribed in JM109 (DE3).A 36 kD fusion protein was p roduced after JM109 (DE3) transformed with pGEMEX1-Tα1 and induced with IPTG.Conclusion: The recombinant pGEMEX1-Tα1 can be successfully constr ucted and expressed in E.Coli.
